HausBots designs and manufactures AEROGRIP crawler platforms (HB2 and HB3) for inspection and maintenance of industrial assets including storage tanks, silos, bridges, wind turbines, and nuclear-facility structures. The robots adhere to ferrous and non-ferrous surfaces using patent-pending AEROGRIP technology and carry payloads of 6–25 kg for visual inspection, ultrasonic testing, scanning, and corrosion mapping. Backed by HAX, Plug and Play Tech Center, and Pi Labs at seed; additional project funding awarded by Game Changers for nuclear-site inspection at Sellafield.
